DRAGONFLYS BLACK AND RED

While the original DragonFly created a new category of portable DAC, its USB power draw made it compatible with computers only. Black and Red answered the call of music lovers everywhere for DragonFlys that could be used with Apple iOS mobile devices and Android smartphones and tablets. These DACs proved for once and for all that convenience and performance need no longer be mutually exclusive.

All current-production DragonFly models incorporate 32-bit ESS Sabre DAC chips.

The DAC chips we've selected are remarkably powerful and sophisticated, yet we've intentionally limited DragonFly's processing capabilities to 24-bit/96kHz resolution.
